Office Staff

The firm is headed by its owners Michael Tarnow and Mark Faucher, both hold
the MAI designation with the Appraisal Institute. There are four other licensed
and state certified appraisers in the firm. Licensed appraisers specialize in
residential appraisals and are approved to perform appraisals for most lenders.
The certified staff members are able to appraise properties ranging from the
smallest properties to the largest and most complex in the state.

Appraisal Institute

The Appraisal Institute is the premier national appraisal society. Its history
goes back to the early 1930s. The MAI designation is only granted to
individuals who have gone through a rigorous training program over a period
of at least five (5) years. The requirements include a demonstration appraisal
report and a comprehensive examination. Appraisers who have achieved the
MAI designation are recognized as having reached the pinnacle of their
profession.
